Orlando Fishing Report~February 2011
Orlando Fishing Report
Orlando, FL
Lake Toho
The first two weeks in February brought back to back cold fronts to Orlando and the central Florida area. The forty degree night time and morning temperatures dropped the water temperature on Lake Toho into the 50’s. This backed the bass out of the shallow spawning areas and made the bite difficult.
These conditions didn’t stop Jimmy Watson and John Beeland of Macon, Georgia from having a successfull Orlando fishing charter. Facing temps in the 40’s and 15-20 mph north winds all day, the duo landed 11 bass on artificial lures. Fishing for the first time on Lake Toho, Watson put on a fishing clinic. He caught bass on several lures including, flukes, plastic worms, and lipless crankbaits. His best five fish weighed 17 lbs which included an 8 lb Orlando trophy bass!! This is why it is so important to book an experienced professional guide on Lake Toho and The Kissimmee Chain Of Lakes. Knowing what lures to use, where, and when during these difficult conditions is the key to a productive Orlando fishing experience.
